Rug Giveaway!

**This giveaway is now closed. The winner has been contacted via email.
Hello there! I’m off at the Haven Conference this week so I’ve got a few fun posts coming for you – and I’m kicking it off with a GREAT giveaway.
The folks at Rugs USA contacted me about a giveaway and asked if I’d like one to try out myself and I was all HECK YEAH and WHOOHOO and YOU DON’T HAVE TO ASK ME TWICE!
They have been so wonderful to work with, and that’s saying a lot because I could not decide which rug I wanted to save. my. life. I mean, how often does a free rug come my way? Uh, never.
I wanted to go a little bit outside my comfort zone and get something I normally wouldn’t, so I ended up with the Moroccan Trellis rug in charcoal:

It came super fast, and as soon as I rolled it out I LOVED it. I loved the color, the design, everything.
I had planned on putting it in the family room and when I laid it out I loved how it looked against the sectional:
It definitely has a more contemporary vibe I was going for. Thing is, I realized right away that my more traditional pillows and drapes didn’t really go with it. The red pillows work great with our old rug, but with this one it looks a little Fourth of July-ish. :)
So it was either change everything else or move the rug, so I took the cheap easy route and moved the rug. I realized it will work in a couple spots in the basement (eventually) but it ended up in the dining room turned library:
For now anyway. :) It may move again, just because I’m not sure it will work with our open living room (and the natural rug we have in there.)
I do know I LOVE this rug – the color is a lovely dark gray, almost a blue tone. It’s wool but it does NOT shed. Halleluiah!!
Here’s a few of the rugs I was trying waffling back and forth on, and a couple others I think are too cool (you can get to them by clicking on the name):

Now here’s the best part – the lovely folks at Rugs USA are offering one of you $150 towards an (in stock) rug of your choice! Their prices are pretty fantastic, so you could easily get a smaller rug any of the styles I showed you for that amount. Or if you’d like to order a larger rug, you can use it towards that.

well, i conveniently have a folder of rugs usa items that i'm debating between! we're converting our office into a school room, and want a really durable, beautiful rug to soften up the space... now i have to go pick one!

I have been wanting a rug from there so badly! Great post and giveaway woo hoo. I want the Loloi Juiliana rug in green! Your living room has even inspired some of my decorating for my living room. I don't have a Facebook account but I hope this counts as an entry to win! Thanks and I love your blog.

okay, after much consideration, i'd pick the Capel Baby's Breath 0450 Light Green Rug in a rectangle shape, but i don't know what size!! i'd have to actually go measure the space, and that would require getting up. :)

I have one "real" rug in my house full of tile because I have the hardest time making a decision. I love the Moroccan Trellis as well. But what I really need is for someone like you to tell me what I should put in my house.

Ahhh, and for my third entry....I am having trouble deciding on the Moroccan trellis rug (the one you have!_ because it has the symmetry I secretly desire and the Chevron...which is a bit funky too! I love them and certainly need more rugs in my life, <3

Okay for my back screen porch I want the trans ocean outdoor rug, for my master I want the homespun damask trellis and for my living room I'm still trying to decide!!!.....I love Rugs USA and have bought the morrocan trellis in navy for my son's new bedroom and love it!!!!

Eeeeeekkkk! There's SO MANY to choose from! But so far, I think that I have narrowed it down to two that I "love most"I love the Bombay Rugs Sapphire Kids Handmade Wool Multi Rug, it would go perfectly in our "fun room".

But I also love the Shaw Kathy Ireland Home Young Attitudes Garden Girl Beige RugClick above image to enlargeRug PadShaw Kathy Ireland Home Young Attitudes Garden Girl Beige Rug because it would be such a fun way to add a sophisticated splash of color to my early colored living room!

How lucky are you? Love all those rugs you showed us and would obviously love a new rug! Mine is red and shedding and is just too much for my small house. It gives off a red tone in all my pics and I hate it!

The rug you purchased is perfect for my place! i live in a small apartment with just me and the hubby so that rug would be a perfect way to dress up our small living area :)haileyrandall4[at]gmail[dot]com
